Madrid away

Any blues looking for a drinking partner like myself? With the old man this time just the 2 of us and he doesn’t drink, he’s happy walking around looking at City, PM me if you are!
 
Off to Madrid in the morning. What's the consensus on wearing any sort of City colours. Easy target etc or should be ok with a scarf or trackie top?
 
To be fair this isn’t just a European game thing, they don’t tend to have alcohol on sale full stop at Spanish grounds in my experience from going to domestic matches at Athletic Bilbao & Valencia in the recent past. They might sell low or non-alcoholic beer.
 
Any truth in major delays going over to Madrid from scouse land
Yeah. There were 26 city fans including myself on the Liverpool to Alicante flight which was due to leave at 16.30 yesterday. It got delayed and delayed and then cancelled at about 20.30. Thought there was gonna be a riot, but unsuprising maybe given a plane load of people had spent 6 hours at the bar.

They put us up in hotels but the rearranged flight wouldn't have got anyone to Alicante in time to get the train to Madrid.

After a bit of a wait they said they would put us on the Liverpool to Madrid flight today at 11.25, so we're back at the airport now.

We'll get there for the game which is the main thing but missed out on a bit of the trip. Also there's the inconvenience of having been stuck in Liverpool.

Yeh we were in the 26 too - sat in the lounge now filling up before we get on the plane. Easyjet provided their usual shit customer service yesterday, firstly blaming a bird strike and then a lack of staff before they cancelled. They bloody knew it would kick off too hence the phalanx of coppers who suddenly appeared! Anyway, fingers crossed, Madrid bound shortly CTID.
